💙✨Pupdate✨💙

Meet the newest member of our team, Future Service Dog Vinyl! Fresh off the plane, he’s settling in pretty well at home with volunteer Puppy Raisers, Kassi & Nate. He’ll spend the next 15 months learning basic skills and socialization needed for his future career as service dog for Canine Companions.

Welcome to Texas, Vinyl! We can’t wait to watch you learn and grow. 🦮💙

Allow children to question things. Let them speak up for themselves and others. It will help them be less vulnerable to manipulation and abuse later.

If it’s not ok for your kids, then why was it ok for you? There’s no need to gaslight yourself.

In order for exercise to be part of self-care, it has to be coming from a positive place. Exercise because it helps you to feel good. It unhelpful if exercise is part of punishment for something you did or ate.

🍀✨Shamrock Update✨🍀

Bittersweet news here at Mending Roots. Shamrock decided she’d rather chase squirrels 🐿️ than be a service dog. As a result, she has been forever adopted by Kassi and Nathaniel. While we were hoping she could be a service dog, we are happy to have her home. Once she settles in, we hope she can obtain a therapy dog certification and continue her work with clients.

Welcome Home, Shamrock! 🥹

Anybody else sometimes feel a bit like this tree and wonder how did we get here? In reality, this tree is quite amazing. It's been able to grow and thrive here even though it's surrounded by different. You can be different, and still get what you need in your environment. We can be like that too.

Often times we tend to think about the worst case scenario. Sometimes, this is because the worst case has actually happened to us in past (ex-trauma). But, traumatic things do not happen daily. What if we thought of the best thing that could happen along with it? What actually happens tends to be somewhere in the middle.
